It’s sad to see that Penn Station used to be such a stunner! See other Beautiful Train Stations That Fell To The Wrecking Ball (And The Crappy Stuff Built In Their Place). Interesting side note: all three cities I’ve lived in so far (New York, Atlanta and Savannah) are represented on the list…

I get the impression that no one in NYC cared much about preservation till the 70’s (that’s the 1970’s). To think that SOHO was going to be demolished at that time to build a road across Manhattan is just amazing.
